My next issue of the photography magazine I subscribe to is coming this week. Doing a course as part of it to pick up some new skills. The first module is apparently about cutlery :D I imagine it'll be some sort of flat lay exercise.

Which magazine do you subscribe too? :)

Also, cutlery as a subject??? Should be pretty challenging, I reckon :D

Practical Photography. I get it through work as they own a few magazines as well as radio stations so I get 50% off :D

I was quite proud of this one this morning, mainly for the sky.

It has made the photo.

Was that on your phone or on a proper camera? Either way, it's great!

On my phone mate.

I don't have a proper camera, I don't think I've been into it enough to ever invest properly.

But fair play to you guys that do.

That sky looks sexy as fuck. 

I'm assuming you only get that with a proper camera?

I think so, also with light filtering and specific lenses but even so, to capture it and then be able to refine it looks amazing.

You can get decent results with some phone cameras, but generally yes, a dslr is your best bet. Posted an article earlier in this thread with a tutorial and general advice for astrophotography, check it out if you're interested.

That is one sexy sky!

Ive been out for a bit this afternoon experimenting with my lens ball. I seem to be doing better with it by using my phone but I’ll get there with my camera eventually!

Edit: @Lucas, here's the link for doing it with a smartphone, maybe give it a try sometime!

Cheers for that, I'll definitely have a little look at some of the apps in the store give one or two a burn.

I'm not a serious photographer but it does feel amazing when you get a shot, you know it's decent and you're proud of it.

It's haunting for me looking at old b&w photos from years gone by, like below, the first photo was our two grandsons on Portobello Beach here in Leith where we live taken by our daughter in 2018 and the other old photos below of the beach, to think our two grandsons were running around on the same beach as were the other people years ago, nostalgic.

2018

I've just sold my first ever stock photo. Signed up for Shutterstock as I quite like the idea of having a purpose to taking simple photos and I've had 3 downloads. It only equates to about 55p once converted from $$ but it'll add up if I keep at it!

Just learned that my Dad got me an early birthday present and it'll be arriving to me soon... :x

Not an actual picture, as I haven't received it yet, obviously.

Mine apparently comes with an additional 35-70mm lens, ME II winder and a right angled viewfinder. Soooo excited! :D
